The UK has banned ninja swords, but critics argue that the law is poorly defined and may inadvertently restrict the possession of other types of knives. Meanwhile, in the US, there are debates about gun control and knife crime, with some arguing that stricter laws will reduce crime, while others claim that they will only drive it underground. In a related discussion, conservative artist Cherie Currie shares her views on the current state of politics and the impact of celebrity culture on society.

VGW Group voidware prohibited by law 21 plus terms and conditions apply. Dana Lashes of Sir Truth Podcast sponsored by Kel-Tec. It's his life mission to make bad decisions. It's time for Florida Man. A Florida Man with prior felonies.

Uh oh, don't tell Keir Starmer. He hid his swords in a Jackson County shop. He's a Florida Man. He, uh, okay, how are you bringing not just one but multiple concealed swords into a business? There was a man, the deputies were called, Jackson County Sheriff's Office. There was a dude behaving aggressively in a business parking lot. Witnesses said, it looks like he's carrying a shotgun and a sweatshirt on his back before he entered the store.

And then when they arrived, they identified him, Joshua Voiles. They found a weapon on him directly, but they found four swords wrapped in a gray sweatshirt elsewhere in the store amongst his belongings. He admitted that the swords were his and he has, oh, lots of felony, prior felony convictions.

So he was arrested and charged with felon in possession of a concealed weapon. So it was a sword. He couldn't, he couldn't even have a sword.

Interesting. But all the Florida people have machetes. Is there a difference in, I mean, I know swords longer than machetes. So could he have a machete?

Machete. Could he have that? Has a ninja ever touched it? I don't know, man.

We got to get Keir Starmer on the problem. Florida man mistakes gas for breaks and oh, slammed right into a Tampa apartment building. I'm surprised this isn't man.

I really am. He totally, I remember that drunk lady in a golf cart, hit her friend's house not once, but twice. An elderly man hit the gas instead of the breaks Thursday or Tuesday morning, crashed into an apartment building in Hillsborough County, Florida.

Deputies arrived shortly after 7-8. I mean, he ran, wow, right into the side of that house. There's a hole in that house. There's a hole in the house.

I can see the vents on their wall. He ran right into the, this building of apartments. And they said that the driver lived in the building that he hit. I don't think not the apartment particularly that he hit, but they said that they're still investigating. Thankfully, there were no injuries. If somebody had been standing in the room that he ran into, they'd be dead. He like, it looks like he ran right into somebody's kitchen. Good heavens. Thankfully, everybody's okay.

I can't. It's a new garage. Mistook the gas for the break. Again, I'm surprised he's a, it's a new garage, Cain says. I'm surprised he has a man. Let's see. Oh, there was a Florida robber jail because he stole $1.50 from Dairy Queen at gunpoint.

At gunpoint, he robbed $1.50 from a Dairy Queen.

It will be illegal to possess, sell, make or import the weapon from the summer with anyone caught with a ninja sword potentially facing six months in prison. The ban is part of measures known as Ronan's law, which also requires retailers to report bulk or suspicious sales to police and an increase to jail sentences for selling weapons to children.

Home secretary Yvette Cooper said it's part of a wider mission to try and keep children safe. Wow. So, and then Keir Starmer, who is the British prime minister, do you know what he tweeted out? He tweeted, Cain, that's ninja swords will be banned by the summer. When we promise action, we shall take it.

Wow. How do you stop ninjas now? Do you feel that wave of safety? Everyone gosh, I feel so safe. The UK is going to make everybody safe.

Crime. I mean, you know, but the ninja swords. I love that they said ninja swords.

That's like the blade version of the blade version of assault weapon. It's everything is a ninja sword. What about like medieval swords? Are those cool? Because they're not ninja swords. They're can they're different regular type swords. So those are cool. I mean, you know, there's, there's a couple of aren't there like several swords that ninjas use? So is it all of the ninja swords? First off, welcome back to the program.

Dana lash with you top of this first hour. That is in Britain where guys, the same brilliant country that put free knife boxes on wait, I'm sorry. Give your knife away box. They had boxes of knives on every street corner. Free free knives for criminals, boxes and knives where the good people were told, bring your knives in, deposit them in our free knife. I mean, our knife Roundup box. Remember they had that I've tweeted about it a while ago.

And it was like I think my most popular tweet ever. But they had knife boxes on certain street corners because they were trying to combat knife crime, the knife amnesty box. And it's like, it would be like the same, you know how uncertain sometimes you'll see like a clothing donation box. So it was like that but for knives, a knife donation.

And you put your there. I mean, they actually had there's I'm going to put one to one country they actually and this is again a few years ago, but this kind of goes into the ninja sort of thing now. They would say, put your machete or sword in here, put your knives in here. They had two different openings, Kane, as you know, for the blades and their knife boxes. That's all it is. It's a free knife box and it did nothing to actually reduce quote unquote knife crime. Sure didn't.

No. I actually put a video in there of a knife box overflowing with knives. I need to see this and I need to know why this box isn't in my area. It sounds like just a free box of knives. That's so they're they're wanting to ban ninja swords. And I'm like, is that all of the ninja swords?

Now? Keep in mind, I like samurai movies. So is it all of the ninja swords? Because there are several kinds. Why can't they use the this is like listening to gun controllers say we need to ban quote unquote assault weapons. And you ask them what an assault weapon is. And they're like, well, it's a black rifle.

And that's all I can tell you. And it looks shooty. So like, what do you when you say ninja sword? Do you mean the katanas?

What is it? You have a tanto, a katana, there's like five or six different types of ninja swords. But I but Prime Minister Britain is going out there saying yes, yes, well, you need to come bring your ninja swords in.

Are they having a problem with the ninja sword? There's the knife. All you got to do is stick your hand in there and get a knife.

He does actually in the beginning of the video, just stick your hand in there. Free knife. Free knife.

And it's that's it's a cardboard or metal. Yeah. There he goes. Free knife. That's actually amazing. Oh, great job.

You didn't think of designing a receptacle that you one could not stick their hand into and pull a knife out from. Okay. Yeah.

I'm just like when they say ninja sword, I just need a little bit of different I need some, you know, why can't we just use actual names of things? How many people are killed by ninjas in the UK? That's the other question.

Would you even know? Somebody put out a picture of ninjas protesting the ninja sword ban in the UK. And there was a just literally a picture of an empty street. Yeah.

But so okay. Are there I didn't do they have a ninja problem in the UK? How many ninjas are out there ninjaing people up? I don't know. It does, right? Yeah.

I mean, I'm just I don't know. So if you take away the ninja sword, the ninjas won't kill anybody anymore. Is that what I mean? Is that what I'm to understand? If anybody's seen a ninja or know about ninjas, they don't need swords.

I wish I was making this up. But it is actually something that they're he's like, has tried to joke about it. But it's actually something that they are legitimately they that's their knife thing. The what and can and again, is it just every sword that they think looks like a ninja sword? When they try to do the excuse me the what is it called? The context or the correction on X the community notes?

None of the all the community notes just keep affirming literally after all the criticisms of Starmer on this. Well, I mean, you know, he's not really just talking about so all blades including the ninja swords that he just doesn't actually Yeah, any kitchen knives also in this law any kitchen knives six inches or more will be banned. Even if they're kitchen knives.

So you can't have your big car. You can't actually carve food at home. No. In Britain, I mean with a small knife you can. Oh, that's really helpful when I'm like doing meat and stuff.

Super great. That's so dumb. Like so what about a bread like your serrated bread knife? No, that blade is actually longer than six inches. You cannot have a bread knife.

No. How do you cut bread without a bread knife? Because bread knives are under their kitchen knives label. But it's for bread. You gotta have it.

The knife does all the work serrated edge get you know, you don't crush your your soft, you know, fluffy, crunchy crust bread kitchen knife. So this is gonna end all the crime right? No. Yeah, it's not. Ninja lives matter, man. You know, let the ninjas have their swords. It's not the ninja swords don't kill people ninjas do. I wish I were joking.

And sadly, I am not. But I don't even think he knows actually what a what the ninja swords are. I don't think he knows there's you know, they use quite a lot. I think the most popular one is the katana. That's the one that has kind of a but then you've got then some people call samurai swords, ninja swords, ninja swords, and those are two very different things. Ninjas, samurais, very different. But I think a lot of these leftists, including people like Keir Starmer, they're just like, Oh, it's just Asian. It's all the same, right?

So the left thinks that's how they approach this. That's why there's a photo that I saw of. I was like, and it's funny because Lorraine notes that in the video, they actually show a machete. There was one video apparently he had, I guess taken it down where he was showing a machete or no. Yeah, no showing a machete and calling it something else like a different type. It just goes to show they have no idea what they're regulating.

This is just a feel good optic. The left is the left everywhere. It doesn't matter. The left is always the left no matter where you go. They think that just removing this is going to make all the crime go down because you know, the criminals I'm sure cane all the knives in that box that we showed where they're overflowing. I'm sure those were all criminals that freely gave up their criminal knives. Yeah, criminals always comply with the law.

You know, that's always what happens when you know, I don't know if you guys are aware of it happens every time happens every time the crime just goes away. Well, as you know, it makes it difficult to buy knives, obviously in England, but there are people tweeting from England saying that not only is it obviously prohibited those type of sales, but you can't even get scissors. You can't get scissors anywhere because of this law.

How weak is your nation that you can't even trust your people with scissors? They're afraid of the liability involved with selling those things. See, now you brought up a very good point that I'm going to dovetail into gun control. Because what are the gun control activists have been doing for quite some time is they have been suing gun manufacturers saying that they have to be responsible for the ways in which criminals choose to use their product. And they want to drive out the availability of a legal item from the marketplace, because how criminals choose to use it, remove the variable that it's a firearm, this is applicable to everything. And in order to try to finagle some some, you know, justification to their accusation of guilt, they try to invoke advertising and marketing and claim that the manufacturers are breaking the rules and they're, it's false advertising, essentially, and they should be held liable. The thing is that all these manufacturers are held liable to the certain standards that everybody else are if you make a defective product at all. But if you are a criminal, and you freely use a legal to own for an innocent person object, and you go out and commit a crime with it, that doesn't mean that you're absolved of the crime because the nature of the implement that you used, it's so dumb. So that's, this is the same argument. They don't even let people have scissors because they can't, they're afraid of the liability because someone may stab somebody with scissors and they don't want to get sued.

So no one can have scissors. You're never going to get rid of crime like this. You'll you in fact, you know what, if I was a criminal, I would be like, you guys are so stupid. I'm going to do more crimes. More crimes on the way. It only allows crime to overrun good people. Yeah.

I mean, it's, it's, I don't know. Gold prices have surged over 40% since January 2024, consistently reaching new highs. According to Goldman Sachs research, the upward trend is expected to persist due to strong demand from central banks. It's stuff like this that's made me take action and why I've bought precious metals like gold and silver. I've partnered with a great company that makes it super easy to buy easy, transparent and simple. And that company is Goldco.

And we are here with our favorites, Dotten and charity. Where were you in bikinis in the snow? Montana. Okay.

She flew out and joined you guys. Isn't it cold? No, it was. Well, yeah, it's bikinis in the snow. We risked getting hypothermia for those photos.

They were sick though. I don't get bikinis in the snow. It's just like an aesthetic.

I don't know if him and I did that. If we did, um, like speedos in the snow, you guys would be like douchebags. That's going to be the name of this podcast episode bachelor happy hour speedos in the snow. David's bridle. If you're listening, you're branding a little bit of speedos in the snow.

It is Ryan Seacrest here.

And now all of the news you would probably miss it's time for Dana's quick five. So POTUS is issued an executive order to ease concealed carry in Washington, DC. It was aimed at quote, making the district of Columbia safe and beautiful container provision that, I mean, look to not only fight crime, but also establish a quote safe and beautiful task force that will collaborate and reading from the order with appropriate local government entities to provide assistance, to increase the speed and lower the cost of processing concealed carry license requests in the district of Columbia. If you remember, I've talked about it before years ago, they only have like one office there. They had two, they closed one and they only had like one office that processed it.

It took forever. Even if you were approved to, to, to get a license to carry, it's just crazy. But that's the way they operate out there. Americans are dipping into their retirement funds, says Newsweek, trying to make ends meet as the economy can maybe hope to rectify itself here, if we can get on track. They're doing it prematurely, obviously, and experts are warning that this is going to have serious consequences on you later on in your life. A study by Vanguard looked at data from over 5 million people with retirement accounts, they found that almost 5% of account holders took hardship withdrawals from their 401k accounts in 2024. That's up 4% from 23.

Those allow people to access their funds early in cases like an urgent financial need, but it's kind of considered a last resort. Also a sharks were captured making terrifying sounds in the first evidence, I didn't need to know this, that they are not silent killers. That's great. That's really great, you know, because it didn't have enough things to just, you know, freak out about in my life. Now sharks make noises when they come kill you. At first they thought that they didn't make any noises because they didn't have the sound producing organs and other mammals.

But there was a study done by the Royal Society Open Science, and they found that rig sharks, the small bottom dwelling sharks off the coast of New Zealand make a clicking sound when they're handled or near others. Interesting. Stick with us, Stephen Holbrook next. Welcome back to the program. Dana Lash here with you at the bottom of this third hour. And of course, you can listen terrestrially all across the country.

And we got the simulcast kicking at Channel 347, DirecTV, X, Facebook, everywhere. One of my favorite people in all of music. She's been on the show before. It is, I mean, I checked off like at least three buckets on my bucket list. When she first came on my show, I wore a t shirt with her face on it when I was in high school. I mean, I was like, and still am mega fan, like one of the originals and just an OG icon. And I think everybody else is a pale imitation.

I really do believe that. Cherie Currie, who is the the front woman for the runaways and artists in her own right. She's a sculptor with chainsaw. She's like the Michelangelo of chainsaws.

So add that onto the resume. You know, she's got a boulevard to splendor. She's still out there making music, kicking ass, taking names. And she joins us now via Skype because she is also, as you all are aware, like truly punk rock and that she is an open conservative, when it is so dangerous still for artists to be such and to be vocal about it. And she just in a true like punk rock, hardcore fashion doesn't care.

And she's fist in the air about it. My sister in conservatism joins me now. Cherie, so good to see you, my friend.

Oh, Dana, I was gonna say my sister in conservatism. Oh, I love you so much. I'm so proud of you. Thank you for having me. I miss you. I miss you on television all the time. I so appreciate it. Thank you, Mike. Thank you, my friend.

I wanted to ask you this and I'm going to get into because you had tweeted about something that Nancy Wilson had said. But to start with, I feel like more people very slowly, especially artists, because it's dangerous. You're in a discipline where you have to be vulnerable anyway.

And that's like part of the appeal of the art. You are vulnerable. You're putting yourself out there. And yet at the same time, so many like yourself, it's hard to be an open conservative in what you do or just even speak out as a constitutionalist or speak out in favor of, you know, lower taxes or just, you know, not being terrorized because of a car that you drive. Is it easier now because more people seem a little bit more comfortable with at least talking about it and being a conservative? Or do you think it's harder because it does sort of feel like the remaining very far left?

They're more violent, louder, more lefty? I don't know how to put it. It's like there's like a trade off. How does it feel from your perspective?

Well, you know, you and I are so similar, Dana, because I've never really given a rusty rats if you get it. I mean, it's like all I know is that I've had all this time, you know, to really see what's going on. I read Agenda 21 from 1992 from Rio. I knew what they were up to. I actually thought they were going to be doing it during Obama administration. I just I honestly, the Tesla stuff, it's to me, I'm kind of glad because it just shows how insane they have become.

And, you know, honest to God, I mean, I've never met a Republican conservative that is a violent person that is nasty. I mean, we just. I found my niche and and now we're just surrounded by a bunch of crazy people that honestly, I mean, to see Tesla, which was number one, everybody wanted a Tesla on the left. Now they're they're they're destroying these. I mean, they they're Looney Tunes, sister.

They're Looney Tunes. I agree. I mean, are you kidding me? It's I have no problem saying you're a nutcase.

I think anybody that would think that she would be would be scared at all. They I mean, again, she carves things with chainsaws. Maybe just find somebody with not that hobby.

Find like, you know, some new crochets. Maybe. I don't know. Talk with our good friend Cherie Curry. So Nancy Wilson, I read this write up where she was doing an interview with Milwaukee Sentinel. And, you know, I love heart. I, you know, I always like I always thought Nancy Wilson is a great guitar player. I and I it I don't I don't demand that people whose art I enjoy share my viewpoints. But I don't want to feel like I'm an enemy while I'm trying to enjoy what they're doing.

I don't want to feel like the person originating the music or the film or whatever hates me. And I was reading this piece where she was talking about the 70s. And she said, quote, we were kind of embarrassed at that time to call ourselves American because of the dirty politics of the Vietnam War.

And then she added to be as subtle as possible. It's more embarrassing now. And you had something to say about it. And you said anyone embarrassed to be an American during the splendid government evisceration is out of touch with the American people. I don't know what is there to be embarrassed about? Well, she hasn't been out in the world, Dana.

And I will tell you it had to it was probably a year ago. I mean, I live alone. And so I only have to worry about myself and my son here and there. But I went to routes. It's a supermarket chain out here. And I literally walked in there. And I looked at the prices and I had a panic attack for the families because I mean, I can handle you know, taking care of me but families I knew that they were not going to be able to do this. And it just shot through me like a lightning bolt.

I was so fearful. And, and I honestly believe people like Nancy, like, you know, and even Joan, Joan Jep, you know, she was wearing a Kamala pin when she was on stage. I don't blame them because I watched what happened and the change that happens when people become very big stars and they have so much money and they've got their, you know, assistance. They don't go to the supermarket. They don't, they don't live real lives like we do. And so I have to give, cut them a little bit of a break there. So I just find them blissfully unaware and naive.

And it truly does insult me a little bit that they don't think about the people that buy their records and buy tickets to their concerts or buy tickets to see their movies. That they don't really jump in and see what we've been going through. It has been horrendous. And, and that's the sad part is that, that, you know, all I know is that if I had that kind of wealth, I would, the one thing I would want to do is more like Elon Musk, you know, just to really find out what is going on. Why are the American people in such trouble? Why are they suffering so much?

What can I do to help? I never see that. I only see opinions. And then they go back to their mansions and, you know, tell their assistants to go out and do their thousand dollar shopping. It just, yeah, it's just two different worlds, Diane. Really, really, Dana. Two different worlds, yeah. It is very much so.

We're talking with our good friend Cherie Currie about the nature of the political sentiment and the political environment right now. And I, whenever I watch, because I always, you know, I watch award shows, I'll watch the Oscars because I like to see, you know, I like the, I liked the old school, like pomp and circumstance of it. Like I love watching, this is like, I'm making me sound like a weirdo. I love watching like old award shows that you can find on YouTube where it's like goes back into like the fifties and the forties because it was, oh my gosh, the great, I mean, you're celebrating the artistry and there was such a respect for the audience.

And there's this marked difference. There was, I mean, they were so, it was done for the audience. There were movies made for the audience. The, everybody was grateful and they're thanking the audience, not just the Academy. And it just felt like the audience as a viewer, as a moviegoer, as an appreciator of the craft, you were part of it as well. Now it's like, it's just very hostile and it's all about making a political stance. Every time somebody goes up on stage, I'm like, what, what is this going to be like? What, what are we going to, what ranting are we going to get?

It has changed so much. How does that affect you when you're creating? I, that has to be a, like a heavy weight that seems like it doesn't, does that chill your, does it chill you wanting to, to make art? I would just be demotivated. I would not be motivated, I don't think.

Well, I'm not motivated to be in this business anymore, as you know. But as far as movies are concerned, I mean, literally they have their little group and we ain't in it, sister. We're not the cool kids, although we are. We're not the cool kids. Yes, we are.

We truly are because we're the warriors, you know, they, they, they're just mouthpieces. And I mean, I just can't watch those award shows because I don't want to hear it because I know that what they're going to say does not even relate one iota to the American people. And they really, they need to take a step back and take a good hard look at their words and, and how it affects the people that now will not buy those tickets. And we're just sick and tired of seeing these elites, these mega rich superstars talking down to us when we're the reason that they are stars. And now a lot of stars forget that. They forget the fans. Yep.

You know, I mean, that's why whenever I still do show, I go, I mean, if it wasn't for the fans, I wouldn't be there. Yeah. I, I, a couple of things to consider because I feel like the younger generation's Gen Z, like the generation that, that I'm raising, you know, Gen X is, is really, I think making Gen Z is going to be Gen X on steroids.

I'm really feeling like that. Like they're economically literate. They don't want the baggage. They don't want the drama.

They're actually more constitutional, apparently, according to numerous studies. I was watching these stories of, you know, Elon Musk, and he's got big balls, you know, the, the, the nerd who's out, who's out there helping to cut and going through all this stuff, literally called himself that I'm like, this is just the best time to be alive right now. And they're all Gen Z-ers. Like he's got all these Gen Z nerds working for him.

And I say that not as a pejorative, like it's a compliment. And then I'm reading these surveys. Yeah. Watching Bret Baier last night. I mean, it's just astonishing what they're doing.

Yes. And the fact that the Democrats are trying to stop this, I mean, we're going bankrupt. We're going bankrupt because of the waste and abuse and fraud. But Cherie, they're telling you that they're trying to save you money, which is the Republicans stealing your money. Exactly.

That doesn't make any sense. Yeah, I don't think Elon Musk really gives a rusty rats about our social security numbers. He is, he's doing what nobody had the guts to do. And president Trump, we've never seen anything like it. It is the golden age.

I've never seen anything like it. I just turned 65. And, and I have watched with my own two eyes, California, just go into the hole. Just my, my state. It was so beautiful.

You know, just, just a few decades ago. You can always come to Texas. We would love to have you here. I'm just laying it out there. You know, just laying it out there. We're, we're pretty great here in Texas. You know, I know you are. I know you are trying to get my son. That's fine. As long as I can carve, I don't care.

There you go. The younger generation, it feels like they, because Gen X apparently saved everybody during the election that Gen X voted, you know, overwhelmingly Republican this last election and voter turnout for Gen X is pretty crazy. Voter turnout for Gen Z was higher than previous youth votes. Are you encouraged by seeing this? Like, what would you tell the younger generations?

I'm so, so encouraged. And because to be honest, I don't like my son who is 34, he said that Trump was not going to win and he is not a Trump supporter. So it's been a little contentious. Not for me, from him, you know, but, but I think that the Democrats have just made it impossible for people not to see the insanity behind that party. They have lowered themselves to a level that I never expected, nor do I think is acceptable in any way, shape, or form for our leaders to be, you know, crocket, for her to be dancing with the, you know, and also with the ridiculous cursing.

I mean, this is not- Because that's punk rock just to curse, you know, that's what they're thinking is the new punk rock, Cherie. Yeah, I guess that's what they think, but they're wrong. And that's the final word on it. If anybody can get the final word on it, it's her.

That's right. Yeah, they're wrong and it's not going to work. And all I'm asking is just give it, just would you guys, especially the legacy media that is truly, I blame them for the Tesla dealership bombings and shootings. I mean, they put so much fear into people that what else can they do? They're so helpless under these lies from the Democrat party. I don't blame them, especially with social security and Medicare, for them to be putting any kind of idea into these retirees that they're going to lose those benefits. To me, they should be jailed for that because we've been through so much, Dana, since COVID.

I mean, and we're very still in the middle of being, and we're very still raw from it. And the constant lies, and people know, people know now that they're lies. It's criminal.

It really is criminal, isn't it? There's going to be a reckoning. It's a slow coming, but there's going to be a reckoning. Cherie Currie, always a pleasure. My dear sister in conservatism, you are welcome to bless this show, to grace these airwaves anytime you like.
